Date: 8th June 2023
And if you fall down seven times, you get back up on the eighth time.
Yes there's a big gap in the date of this blog post and the previous one. That week I received the negative test I didn't publish anything anywhere for a week. I just needed time to orient myself. I knew this would not be easy and that is the reason for writing about this. To let others know they're not alone, and that trying to conceive is taxing, whether it be emotionally, mentally, physically, or financially .
I took a second pregnancy test a week ago because I experienced the same back pain I experienced last year. This test was just to rule out pregnancy and to know it was safe to take a painkiller that was stronger than panadol.
No period, no positive pregnancy test, no baby.
But I have a pelvic ligament strain which I require physical therapy for. Yay me.
For now, I'm just focusing on getting myself to a healthy space, mentally and physically, so that if and when I do get pregnant there are less issues to factor in.
I'll keep pushing forward until I have accepted it's time to stop.
